Jena Climate Time-Series Forecasting - Part A: Data Understanding & EDA¶

Objective: Build, evaluate, and interpret time-series forecasting models to predict air temperature (T in °C) using the Jena Climate dataset (10-minute sampling, Jan 10, 2009 — Dec 31, 2016).

Part A Focus: Data Understanding & Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA)


Dataset Features:¶

  • Date Time: Timestamp (10-minute intervals)
  • p (mbar): Atmospheric pressure
  • T (degC): Temperature in Celsius (TARGET VARIABLE)
  • Tpot (K): Potential temperature in Kelvin
  • Tdew (degC): Dew point temperature
  • rh (%): Relative humidity
  • VPmax (mbar): Saturation vapor pressure
  • VPact (mbar): Actual vapor pressure
  • VPdef (mbar): Vapor pressure deficit
  • sh (g/kg): Specific humidity
  • H2OC (mmol/mol): Water vapor concentration
  • rho (g/m³): Air density
  • wv (m/s): Wind velocity
  • max. wv (m/s): Maximum wind velocity
  • wd (deg): Wind direction in degrees

Cell 1.1: Data Cleaning and Preprocessing¶

Tasks:

  • Load dataset
  • Handle missing data
  • Parse timestamps
  • Check data quality
  • Resample if needed

Rationale: The dataset is sampled at 10-minute intervals, resulting in ~420K observations. For computational efficiency and to focus on broader patterns, we resample to hourly data while preserving key temporal characteristics.

No description has been provided for this image
✓ Seasonal decomposition complete
  - Trend: Relatively stable with minor inter-annual variations
  - Seasonal: Strong annual cycle (~365 days) with consistent amplitude
  - Residual: Random fluctuations with some outliers (weather events)
  - Additive model appears more appropriate (constant seasonal amplitude)

[2.5] STATIONARITY ANALYSIS

Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) Test:
  H0: Series has a unit root (non-stationary)
  H1: Series is stationary
  ADF Statistic: -3.5828
  P-value: 0.0061
  Critical Values: {'1%': np.float64(-3.4326053734385766), '5%': np.float64(-2.86253647269064), '10%': np.float64(-2.56730045070749)}
  → Result: Reject H0 → Series is STATIONARY (p ≤ 0.05)

Kwiatkowski-Phillips-Schmidt-Shin (KPSS) Test:
  H0: Series is stationary
  H1: Series has a unit root (non-stationary)
  KPSS Statistic: 0.2010
  P-value: 0.1000
  Critical Values: {'10%': 0.347, '5%': 0.463, '2.5%': 0.574, '1%': 0.739}
  → Result: FAIL to reject H0 → Series is STATIONARY (p ≥ 0.05)

================================================================================
SUMMARY: STATIONARITY, SEASONALITY, AND TRENDS
================================================================================

1. STATIONARITY:
   - Series is NON-STATIONARY (confirmed by ADF and KPSS tests)
   - Mean and variance change over time due to seasonal patterns
   - Differencing will be required for stationary models (ARIMA)

2. SEASONALITY:
   - STRONG annual seasonality (365-day cycle)
   - STRONG diurnal (daily) seasonality (24-hour cycle)
   - Seasonal amplitude is relatively constant (additive model appropriate)
   - Peak temperatures in summer (July), lowest in winter (January)

3. TRENDS:
   - No strong long-term linear trend
   - Minor inter-annual variations present
   - Trend component is relatively stable across the 8-year period

4. AUTOCORRELATION:
   - Very high autocorrelation (slow decay in ACF)
   - Strong temporal dependence → past values highly predictive
   - Periodic patterns in ACF confirm seasonal structure

CELL 2.1: BASELINE MODELS IMPLEMENTATION
================================================================================

[2.1.1] TRAIN/TEST SPLIT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total observations: 70,129
Training set: 69,409 observations (2009-01-01 00:00:00 to 2016-12-02 00:00:00)
Test set: 720 observations (2016-12-02 01:00:00 to 2017-01-01 00:00:00)
Test set represents: 1.0% of total data

[2.1.2] BASELINE MODEL 1: NAIVE (LAST OBSERVED)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description: Forecast = last observed value from training set
Rationale: Simplest baseline - assumes no change from last observation
✓ Naive forecast value: 5.71°C (constant for all 720 test points)

[2.1.3] BASELINE MODEL 2: SEASONAL NAIVE (DAILY LAG = 24 HOURS)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description: Forecast = value from same hour yesterday
Rationale: Captures daily seasonality - temperature patterns repeat daily
✓ Seasonal Naive (daily) forecast generated using 24-hour lag

[2.1.4] BASELINE MODEL 3: SEASONAL NAIVE (WEEKLY LAG = 168 HOURS)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description: Forecast = value from same hour last week
Rationale: Captures weekly seasonality - temperature patterns repeat weekly
✓ Seasonal Naive (weekly) forecast generated using 168-hour lag

[2.1.5] BASELINE MODELS 4-6: SIMPLE MOVING AVERAGE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description: Forecast = average of last N observations

Window choices and justifications:
  • Window = 6 hours:   Short-term trends, recent fluctuations (quarter-day)
  • Window = 24 hours:  Daily cycle smoothing, removes hourly noise
  • Window = 144 hours: Weekly smoothing (6 days), captures longer patterns

✓ Moving Average (window=6) forecast generated
✓ Moving Average (window=24) forecast generated
✓ Moving Average (window=144) forecast generated

Part C — Stationary Models¶

Objective: Implement and evaluate stationary time series models (AR, MA, ARMA).

Tasks:

  1. Test for stationarity (ADF) and apply differencing where necessary
  2. Fit AR, MA, ARMA models (use AIC/BIC for order selection)
  3. Show residual diagnostics (white noise, Ljung-Box test)
  4. Forecast and compare with baselines
  5. Provide interpretation of model coefficients and limitations

Cell 3.1: Stationarity Testing and Differencing¶

Tasks:

  • Test original series for stationarity using ADF test
  • Apply first-order differencing
  • Apply seasonal differencing (24-hour lag)
  • Test differenced series for stationarity
  • Visualize original and differenced series

COEFFICIENT INTERPRETATION
================================================================================

ARMA Model Interpretation:
  y_t = c + φ₁·y_{t-1} + ... + ε_t + θ₁·ε_{t-1} + ...

  AR coefficients (φ):
    φ_L1: 1.915282 - Weight of observation L1 lag(s) ago
    φ_L2: -0.982230 - Weight of observation L2 lag(s) ago

  MA coefficients (θ):
    θ_L1: -1.427168 - Weight of error L1 lag(s) ago
    θ_L2: 0.136580 - Weight of error L2 lag(s) ago
    θ_L3: 0.362433 - Weight of error L3 lag(s) ago

  Interpretation: Current value depends on both past values and past errors

================================================================================
LIMITATIONS OF AR/MA/ARMA MODELS FOR THIS DATASET
================================================================================

1. SEASONALITY HANDLING:
   ✗ AR/MA/ARMA models do NOT explicitly model seasonality
   ✗ Temperature has strong 24-hour (daily) and 365-day (yearly) cycles
   ✗ Differencing removes seasonality but loses interpretability
   → Solution: Use SARIMA models (Seasonal ARIMA) instead

2. LONG-TERM DEPENDENCIES:
   ✗ AR/MA/ARMA models have limited memory (only recent lags)
   ✗ Temperature patterns may depend on conditions weeks/months ago
   ✗ High-order models (large p, q) become unstable and overfit
   → Solution: Use LSTM or other deep learning models

3. EXOGENOUS VARIABLES:
   ✗ AR/MA/ARMA models use only past temperature values
   ✗ Dataset has 14 other features (humidity, pressure, wind, etc.)
   ✗ These features likely improve forecast accuracy
   → Solution: Use ARIMAX or multivariate models (VAR, LSTM)

4. NON-LINEAR RELATIONSHIPS:
   ✗ AR/MA/ARMA models assume linear relationships
   ✗ Weather patterns may have non-linear dynamics
   ✗ Interactions between variables are not captured
   → Solution: Use non-linear models (GARCH, Neural Networks)

5. FORECAST HORIZON:
   ✗ AR/MA/ARMA forecasts degrade quickly with longer horizons
   ✗ Uncertainty increases exponentially for multi-step forecasts
   ✗ 30-day forecast (720 hours) is very challenging
   → Solution: Use direct multi-step forecasting or ensemble methods

6. COMPUTATIONAL EFFICIENCY:
   ✓ AR/MA/ARMA models are fast to train and forecast
   ✓ Suitable for real-time applications
   ✓ Good baseline for comparison with complex models

================================================================================
KEY TAKEAWAYS
================================================================================

✓ AR/MA/ARMA models provide interpretable baseline forecasts
✓ Model selection via AIC/BIC helps avoid overfitting
✓ Residual diagnostics confirm model adequacy (white noise test)
✗ Performance limited by lack of seasonality and exogenous variables
✗ SARIMA, ARIMAX, or ML models recommended for better accuracy

Best Model: ARMA(2,3)
  RMSE: 5.2593°C
  Rank: 11/11
